The Day After: Getting There, But Not Yet

Saturday’s game against Virginia highlighted progress for Bill Belichick’s team, but the wins remain elusive as the Cavaliers did just enough in overtime to steal a 17-16 victory in Kenan Stadium. A critical mistake early and a goal line play at the end sealed North Carolina’s fate for the second straight week as the Heels fall to 2-5 and 0-3 in the ACC. Jason Staples and Buck Sanders join Tommy Ashley to break it all down.
